TT’s MulitBroker solution, launched in July of last year, has been a key factor in the company’s success with the buy side. MultiBroker provides direct market access (DMA) via multiple brokers from a single connection to TT’s TTNET™ global hosting solution, helping buy-side firms diversify their market access and execution risk. As a group, the 30+ brokers on MultiBroker represent 80-90% of all customer segregated assets reported to the U.S. Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC), and they include 20 of the top 25 futures commission merchants (FCMs) by customer segregated assets as compiled by the Futures Industry Association (FIA). Overall, TT provides users access to more than 10,000 products—over 2,500 of which are commodity products—from 40 major exchanges and liquidity platforms.

Victor Anderson, editor-in-chief of Waters Technology, offered, “TT continues to deliver outstanding innovations for the buy side. MultiBroker for the buy side is a brilliant risk mitigation tool and has proven an extremely popular addition to TT’s existing flagship offering, X_TRADER®. Its impressive acceptance from the buy side helped TT win its sixth award in eight years in what has become a very competitive category in the annual BST Awards.”

“We are delighted that Waters Technology has selected us as the top buy-side commodities trading platform,” said Trading Technologies CEO Rick Lane. “MultiBroker represents TT’s initial foray into the application service provider space, and the buy-side customer response in our first year of operation has exceeded our highest expectations.”

CHICAGO, November 5, 2014 – Trading Technologies International, Inc. (TT), a provider of high-performance professional trading software, today announced it will release new cross-market aggregation and enhanced yield-trading functionality for its flagship X_TRADER product this quarter. The company also has released Android and iOS versions of the TT Mobile trading application for early-stage users of the next-generation TT trading platform.

Trading Technologies is showcasing the new X_TRADER capabilities and TT Mobile apps at the FIA Futures & Options Expo, the annual futures and options industry conference taking place today and tomorrow at the Hilton Chicago.

“We’re excited to preview these X_TRADER enhancements alongside the new TT Mobile apps at FIA Expo. While we’re building for what’s next with the new TT platform and looking forward to expanding our global user footprint through that new offering, we’re still very much focused on continuing to enhance our flagship X_TRADER product to benefit our long-time customers,” said Rick Lane, CEO of Trading Technologies.

The new server-side Aggregator tool for X_TRADER combines multiple liquidity pools of an asset, making it possible for users to easily view the aggregated market of similar instruments listed across multiple venues and route orders from the aggregated view based on predefined order-routing rules and configurations.

The Yield by TT functionality allows Autospreader® users to easily value and manage complex fixed income spread trades in a single application. The solution uniquely combines world-class analytics with high-performance server-side execution, allowing users to think, see and trade in yield.

Both Aggregator and Yield by TT will be available in X_TRADER version 7.17.50. The initial release will target the international fixed income markets, with future versions planned for other product types and asset classes, including commodities.

The new TT Mobile trading apps for Android and iOS allow users of the new TT platform to easily monitor and trade the markets from a mobile device. Designed especially for high-performance professional traders, the feature-rich, intuitive apps provide the ability to:

View market data from all TT-supported markets

Enter, adjust and cancel native, synthetic and Autospreader orders from an order ticket or MD Trader® ladder
